We had a lovely Easter Break, Elidir Cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable, right out back was the fields with sheep and lambs which the kids loved.
Very a quiet setting which we enjoyed immensely and the owners were friendly, welcoming and on hand if we needed them. The cottage was close to Caernarfon Castle and Snowdon with a Tesco within 5 minutes drive.
Our stay was perfect and would definitely recommend to friends and family

It would be helpful to know what 'provision' was made at the cottages.
It would be helpful to know what 'provision' was made at the cottages. It varies so much from place to place. We always come prepared, whether there is a 'welcome pack' or not but we have never stayed in a cottage which did not provide soap or a spare toilet roll.

Elidir Cottage is a really comfortable place to stay, easily accessible from the main road but very quiet and overlooking fields. The location is great - you'll never run out of things to do and see whether you're a walker or a less agile tourist.

A warm welcome awaits. The cottage is very comfortable and we'll equipped. Caernarfon is not far away. Bontnewydd makes a good base for exploring Snowdonia and Anglesey.
